I am vengeance. Tate Aaralyn, a lone vampire vigilante who strikes fear into the hearts of monsters. My fangs puncture, and the flavor of iron-infused retribution drips down my throat when I exact justice. Don't be like them. Don't succumb to bloodlust. Make the b*stards pay. These rules have been my guide, leading me through life in the Glenn. And all had been flowing nicely until I met him…
The male cloaked in secrets, wrapped in darkness, and holding the keys to my past and future: Aether. Complex. Messy. Unexpected.
My whole world slipped into a tailspin of lies, betrayal, and secrets. As I'm forced into the guara with a male I loathe, yet somehow crave, I must not only untangle the truth of who I am, but also what I am.
I am the enforcer. Chance Dale, the vampire president's son with a prestigious position as Dux in the guara. I command respect and provide results. I will not let the Glenn down.
Not as I hunt the traitor living among us. Not as dark magic's inky ways begin to seep into our villages. Not as vile beasts fill them.
Nothing will stop me from this path, not even her. Even if one thing is clear: the very enemy I hunt, may be the one I love.
Fangs of Fate is an epic first-person dual-POV romantasy that will leave you breathless! Buckle up, grab a glass of bloodwine, and clear your calendar for this morally-grey, intrigue-infused, and action-packed romance that stars vampires, dragon shifters, corruption, and deception — and secrets that can break even the strongest...

As for the book, I loved the world building. While more or less all aspects are known lore from various fantasy stories, it's in a new setup and who has knowledge of what/whom. The "Untish" are an unexpected twist in that (mainly) vampire realm once we learn what these mystical creatures are.
The telling is mainly split into a dual story line following the main characters on different journeys. For long stretches it is unclear whether this is a second chance love with a redemption arc or whether the new characters will make it a strangers to lovers maybe even fated mates. Even by the end of book 1 it's still not 100% though hinting very much in one direction. This definitetly added to all the mysteries and tension/suspension making me addicted to this story. And the fact that I kept changing of who I was routing for. Let's see who will redeem themselves in book two or go full villain, and who keeps pulling the strings or is a puppet/pawn.
The small -¼ star is saddly deducted for the last few chapters when the POV is switching back and forth during a major battle rehashing the same scenes from different angles and more than once was I wondering is this a new scene or the repetition of the previous. Other than that I devoured that rather lengthy one and immediately have added the second book to my TBR (uhm, TBL once that is available as audiobook - hopefully with the same narrators)
Amazing Worldbuilding (overall 4¾ rating)

⭐⭐⭐⭐️
“Vengeance is easy. Living with what comes after is the real curse.”
Rebecca Parcha delivers a lush, shadow-drenched romantasy where vengeance tastes like iron and love feels dangerously close to ruin. Told through dual POVs, we move between Tate — a vampire vigilante carving justice from darkness — and Chance, her ex and political golden boy burdened by duty, history, and unfinished feelings. Their tension hums beneath every encounter, sharp with betrayal and longing that never truly died.
But let’s be honest — Aether steals the immortal spotlight. A vampire AND a dragon shifter? The moment he entered the story, wrapped in mystery and quiet menace, the entire narrative ignited. Every scene carried weight, intrigue, and that irresistible sense of ancient power barely contained.
The world-building is immersive without overwhelming, unfolding naturally through politics, magic, and fragile hierarchies. It feels lived-in — brutal, complicated, and morally grey in all the best ways.
Natalie Van Sistine gives Tate a fierce vulnerability that balances rage with restraint, Steven Kelly captures Chance’s conflicted authority beautifully, and William Madison’s Aether is pure velvet danger — measured, magnetic, and impossible not to be drawn to.
At just under 17 hours, this is a commitment listen, and needing multiple sittings slightly broke the momentum for me. But, when fate, fangs, and fire collide this well, it’s worth returning to.
Verdict: Darkly romantic, politically tangled, and gloriously supernatural — this slow-burning bite promises even sharper teeth to come.
Darkly romantic and supremely supernatural

The narrators really bring the characters to life, you feel their emotions, the tension and all their doubts and struggles.
It was easy to follow, the atmosphere was great and it kept me engaged and wanting to listen to more chapters.
The POV follows 3 characters; Tate, Chance and Aether, all with their distinct personalities, roles, and secrets.
I love how it explored evolving forbidden powers, dark magic, conspiracy, and questioning the world around them and everything they've been told.
It's a world full of secrets and politics, I enjoyed the desire for vengeance and rebel energy from Tate, the broody mystery and power from Aether, and all the conflict and angst from Chance.
Looking forward to book 2!
An addictive romantasy with vampires, shifters and monsters. Loved the narration!
